Leadership Summit 2011 Leadership Matters: Building a Foundation for Community Stewardship Leadership Summit 2011 Leadership Matters: Building a Foundation for Community Stewardship October 13 – 14, 2011 Omni Austin Hotel Southpark 4140 Governor’s Row / Austin, TX 78744 Registration Information NATIONAL FORUM FOR BLACK PUBLIC ADMINISTRATORS CEntral TEXAS CHAPTER VISIT US at WWW.nfbpa.ORG OR WWW.nfbpacEntraltEXAS.ORG 1 Join The Best In The West At Leadership Summit – Your Connection To: • Progressive Ideas • Networking Opportunities • Expert Advice • Career Growth • Leading-Edge Information There’s A New Summit Coming To Town! And you won’t want to miss a minute of it. Leadership Summit 2011 is one of the National Forum for Black Public Administrators’ premier training and educational activities – designed to help you create and execute success- ful professional and personal strategies for the future. This year’s theme is “Leadership Matters: Building a Foundation for Community Stewardship.” This event will draw approximately 400 public administrators from around the region and beyond Austin, Texas. Leadership Summit 2011 is designed for people like you – busy professionals who recognize the value of others’ experiences and want to benefit from it. In just two days, you’ll discover ideas and tools that you’ll start using the very next workday. The best managers and supervisors aren’t born that way. Over time, they develop the skills needed to successfully juggle the many tasks each day brings. They learn to give clear direction, make their ideas known and resolve conflicts. Since NFBPA was founded in 1983, its membership has grown to include managers and executives in virtually all disciplines repre- sented in state and local government. In addition, attendees will meet with private sector executives, deans, faculty and graduate students at schools of public administration. Leadership Summit 2011 Will: • Provide in-depth training on topics of critical interest to administrators and executives in federal, state and local governments. • Present a forum for public administrators to explore solutions to key challenges facing the urban community and local governments nationwide and globally. • Support the career development of the next generation of public administrators by providing exposure and access to highly accomplished public officials. Austin: The Live Music Capital Of The World Leadership Summit 2011 will be held at the Omni Austin Hotel Southpark in Austin, Texas. Upon your arrival, you’ll find that we celebrate being “weird.” Austin is a hot spot for creativity and embraces its community of musicians, artists, entrepreneurs and progressive thinkers. In walking around town, you may bump into Sandra Bullock, Willie Nelson, a cyclist named Lance and a Longhorn steer named Bevo. And we’re known for being the Live Music Capital of the World®, a title that we take seriously with about 200 live music venues. Upon completion of your professional development, we encourage you to take a tour of our lovely city. The gateway to the Texas Hill Country, rolling hills and sparkling waterways abound in Austin. And each night during the summer, we gather to watch 1.5 million bats take flight from underneath the Ann Richards Congress Avenue Bridge. We have some of the country’s best Tex-Mex and barbecue restaurants, as well as a wide selection of local and organic specialties. While at our airport, stop by and learn about the great contributions of our own Barbara Jordan. Stevie Ray Vaughn June 15, 2011 On behalf of everyone here in Austin, we’re thrilled to invite you back for another excellent development opportunity. The annual regional conferences have been a productive ground for discussions about the key drivers affecting our communities and the future of our profession. This year, you’ll find NFBPA focusing on the leadership skills and tactics required to successfully navigate in these exciting – albeit turbulent – times for public service. In many ways, Austin has been a testing ground for new ideas in public service, leveraging the ex- traordinary talent of local partners, like IBM and the University of Texas, to rethink the way we do business. In fact, one of the consistent themes in Austin’s success is our continuous effort to engage and involve local partners in problem solving and decision making. Just this year, Austin was lucky to be a pilot participant in IBM’s new Smarter Cities initiative and launched a visionary new part- nership with the University of Texas to make fact-based, data-supported planning and development decisions. As we’ve found, leadership is not just defined by the outcome – it’s just as much about who you bring to the table and how you engage them. In this year’s Leadership Summit, “Leadership Matters: Building a Foundation for Community Stewardship”, NFBPA has lined up an excellent group of thought leaders for you over the course of two days. The Leadership Summit gives you a chance to learn from their experiences and evaluate how their messages may resonate with your own organizations. At the same time, it’s an opportunity to also ask yourself what your personal role may be and what leadership skills will be required to be successful. This year’s conference will help you realize, define and refine those skills. Austin is a community built on ideas, creativity and innovation, all set against a beautiful natural backdrop and a climate supporting development of businesses of all sizes. In just the past year, we have been recognized as a top city for small business, creativity, “green” practices, safety and quality of life. Of course, we were also recognized for having the best local music scene in the country! We invite you to find out for yourself why Austin was named the “Best City for the Next Decade” by Kiplinger’s Magazine. We look forward to seeing you in Austin! Lee Leffingwell Marc A. Ott Mayor City Manager Your Connection To 8 Straight-Shooting Workshops Tap into the talent, expertise and experience of subject matter experts in eight workshops designed to enhance your leadership expertise, provide insights and strategies to cope with technology and budgeting. Create a dialogue with the next generation of leaders, and intensify your role as partners in sustainability, education and human services. Concurrent Workshops Friday, October 14, 2011 / 8:30 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. “Budget Once, Measure Twice, Then Evaluate The Impact” In response to major revenue shortfalls, municipalities are closing budget gaps with an array of policy choices, such as reduction in workforce and service delivery, that may create a lag in their organization’s fiscal recovery. This workshop will explore the benefits of measuring the impact of budget cuts, creating performance strategies and establishing benchmark measurements essential to effective fiscal and service recovery. “Transition – Surviving The Unthinkable” Restructuring, layoffs and involuntary separations from employment have become common ills during the economic down- turn. Are you prepared to transition seamlessly into a new position or different career? This workshop will offer you statisti- cal data, case studies and opportunities for constructive dialogue with executive and human resource professionals who have experienced the “unthinkable” and dealt with transition successfully – personally and professionally. “Making Technology-Wise Decisions” Is your organization lagging behind the technology curve? Are there key business processes that are inefficient, gobble up staff resources and limit opportunities for success? Join a group of experts in the field to address these issues and to advise management on how to best capitalize on these opportunities. This workshop will be of value to anyone interested in gaining insight on how to leverage new and innovative technologies successfully in your organization. “Transparency In Government” When it comes to federal and state public information laws, how do public officials balance the public’s right to know with individual privacy rights? There is much debate today regarding “sunshine laws” and how local, state and federal governments are implementing and managing those laws in light of advanced technological advances such as e-mail, text messaging, and other social media. Does a public official, elected or appointed, lose all privacy rights due to public service? You are invited to hear a panel of experts in the field of open government discuss and debate these issues in an effort to update you on the latest litigation and legislative matters in this area. Helpful everyday tips will be provided. Concurrent Workshops Friday, October 14, 2011 / 10:15 a.m. to 11:45 a.m. “Tighten Up: Navigating The New Normal” The “new normal” dictates that government can’t – and perhaps shouldn’t – do everything (or even everything that it used to do). Despite universal grim economic realities, the City of Richmond, VA, aspires to be a “Tier One” city by coming together as a community – citizens, city staff and elected officials – to set priorities and solve problems. By embedding those priorities and solutions into the budget, along with a healthy dose of citizen engagement, involvement and volunteerism, Richmond is developing an innovative model to become the “City of the Future.” Richmond Chief Administrative Officer Byron C. Marshall explains a simple, yet challenging, three-step process that Richmond is using to accomplish these goals. 4 “Operating Principles For A Sustainable Future” Lucia Athens, the City of Austin’s Chief Sustainability Officer, will present her perspectives on creating more sustainable cities. We often view this process as simply adopting the latest technologies to reach our desired end. Beyond specific strate- gies, what ways of looking at the world will help us navigate the process of change? What world views provide a filter that allow us to select the most sustainable approaches? “What’s In Your Tool Kit: Skills, Strategies and Solutions For Your Success” Join Dr. Calvin D. Jamison and Dr. Troy L. Coleman as they provide a framework to assess and develop critical leadership and management tools.
